USA, Canada / Emigrate from the USA - the sequence of events [207]

Walk through the aisles see how they discuss prices substituting one brand for another because the price is cheaper or vs. those in the other store

It's been always like that, people were always comparing prices and were buying wherever it's cheaper. It would be dumb not to do it.

Americans are getting poorer and poorer and that's a fact.

someAmericans just like some Poles, Canadians etc. This is not an American phenomenon.

Are you saying you don’t have poverty problem? I suppose you have no homeless people either?

of course we do, mainly in big cities (in some ghettos in Chicago, NYC etc) but it doesn't mean that we're mainly poor people here and is this what you're trying to say all the time.

but those same poor people will NEVER be refused health care because they don't have insurance

same here. By law, they can't refuse any patient needing help (emergency). Then in regular cases, people without health care can always get helped using one of the charities (which pay the bill).

You’re kidding right? 50 million without access to healthcare and God knows how many starving each day and you think of yourself as ………. LOL

and yet it doesn't make the US a third world country. We have food stamps and charities allover the place in the US and no one has starve here and if one does, he's either uninformed or too dumb to find help. Yes, we have poverty but who does not? Do you think, there's no poverty in Poland or Canada? (Know both countries, can't tell me fairy tales)

No wonder people start abandoning the sinking ship and we have threads like this.

Successful people and people who are making it here are not leaving. Besides, there's an obvious connection to Poland in his case (and many other cases on PF where people are going back to Poland) and it's obvious, people who struggle, choose to struggle in the country they originally came from.

Surprise,surprise looks like US is a third world country, as of September of this year US Census Bureau reported 48.6 million people as uninsured down from 50 million the year before.

LOL you're nuts, man. How does that make us a third world country, huh? It's not really a question, so don't bother replying to it. I already know how you feel about us, no need to repeat your bs again and again.

The problem is we don't have a health care system

are you sure, you live in the States? I have a great insurance and many people I know, have it too.

USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

I can see hating ignorant redneck Americans, or shallow, materialistic Americans, or whatever little brains believe that Americans are..

then again, why hate anyone at all? I can imagine to hate someone who did something wrong to me or my relatives and friends, other than that, it's more or less dislike, if that much.

On the contrary, I would not recommend anyone moving to the USA

you must be in dire straits, man. There's nothing wrong with living here if you have a good job. I lived in Poland for a while and however Poland is a nice country, I wouldn't want to live there for good. It all depends on what one expects and I guess, the emotions are playing a role in it too.

USA, Canada / Do many Polish people in America hate Americans? [592]

You just like to argue, do you? The first German settlers came to the US about 400 years ago and brought their habits and foods with them, just like anyone else who came here. Hamburger, the way we know it, is all American, simple as that. It's a same with hotdog and everything else too. I lived in Germany long enough to know the difference. Same with pizza, an Italian invention however, after tasting both, I prefer ours (matter of taste).

Love / How can I make my Polish guy comfortable while in States? [12]

Americans are athletic

like anywhere else, some of us are very athletic and some are not

"on the surface"

nope, those of us who are athletic, are really athletic, no surface here, LOL

optimistic

yes and there's nothing wrong with that

Poles are introspective and melancholic

true

Poles emigrate not because of money

not true, most of them emigrate to enhance their financial situation (according to every single Pole I've talked to and I've met many Poles)

Language / What does it mean? - A Polish language game for foreigners [59]

but for eg. you can't say that people with dementia who are confused have a groch z kapustą w głowie.

of course not, they're ill.

Do you feel the difference?

yes, thx anyway :-)

You're really good :)

One for today: leśne dziadki

thx strzyga

and "lesne dziadki" = backwards in the meaning of someone who's not quite up to date, right?

a mish -mash of informationthat hasn't been processed properly that causes some sort of confusion. More like a big mess in your head.

Sorry Zazulka, to me it still looks like confusion ;-)

wsio ryba

ceregielić się

OK, got it. It means "to treat with kid gloves" but I have to admit, I didn't know it, found it online though.
